What about the moon landing?
That I do remember and I imagine most of us were glued to our tv sets watching. It was a Sunday afternoon and evening eastern time for the landing and moon walk.
Taking a dump in Cambridge, MA, at the moment the message came thru, "Tranquility base here. The Eagle has landed".
Kennedy? I was in English class. The head of the department came into the classroom and announced the news. Several days before things became normal.
9/11? I slept thru it, having worked until dawn on a project. When I woke up, ----, shaved, showered, the radio was reporting the news. First thought was Saddam. Second thought was bin Laden. Second thought was right.
